Default X-Type Problems after changing front springs

Hi every one, I'm new to this but could really do with some help please?

I have a jaguar x-type 2.0 diesel 2006 (63000miles)

Last week while sitting on the drive way one of my front springs broke. I had it recovered to the garage and 2 new ones put on. (I think they are after market ones) but now when I steer the car full lock to the left the wheels judder and the car chatters. But only really while the car is stationary. Also I have noticed when on the motorway the steering wheel vibrates which it didn't before. It's been back to that garage and they can't find the fault. I've had the wheels rebalanced and the top mount bearing changed (left side) still no change. Really starting to worry about this. Would be really greatful for any advice.

Thanks.

Elliott

The after market springs may be the problem if they were not specd right for the car, too soft could give you those problems!! double check they are for your Model & year!!
